We calculate the plasmon dispersion relation and damping rate of collective excitations in a double-layer system consisting of monolayer graphene and GaAs quantum well at zero temperature including layer-thickness and exchange-correlation effects. We use the generalized random-phase-approximation dielectric function and take into account the nonhomogeneity of the dielectric background of the system. We show that the effects of layer thickness, electron densities, and exchange-correlations are more pronounced for acoustic modes, while the optical branch depends remarkably on dielectric constants of the contacting media.

We investigate the dispersion relation and decay rate of plasmon modes in a double-layer system made of bilayer graphene (BLG) and infinite GaAs quantum well at zero-temperature within the generalized random-phase-approximation and taking into account the 2DEG layer-thickness and inhomogeneity of the background dielectric. We illustrate that the acoustic plasmon dispersion curve of the considered system differs significantly from that of monolayer graphene (MLG)–GaAs heterostructure and BLG–GaAs without layer-thickness. Calculations also demonstrate that meanwhile the optical plasmon curve is affected slightly by spacer width and exchange-correlation, the acoustic one depends remarkably on the interlayer distance, inhomogeneity of the background dielectric, carrier densities, spacer dielectric constant, quantum well width and exchange-correlations.

An external electrostatic field of the order of a few tens of a volt per nanometer causes significant changes in the electron density distribution near a metal surface. Because of differing electronic distributions and varying responses of electrons to the applied field for various metals, the resulting local field distribution in the close vicinity of the surface should depend on the electronic properties of the particular metal, even for flat surfaces. Field-free and field-modified electron density distributions for different metal surfaces were calculated using the functional integration method. This approach enables the exchange-correlation effects to be correctly considered and makes it possible to account for the proper field-effect for broad field ranges without using the perturbation theory. The results of calculations are compared with the field-ion microscopic observations.
